Anglicanism combines Catholic and Protestant beliefs to form a "middle way"--they may respect the Pope as one leader among many, but not as their leader, and certainly not infallible. Anglican priests can be female, married, or even homosexuals. and the religion allows Birth Control and divorce.
Anglicans have Protestant tendencies but do not necessarily consider themselves Protestant. There are varying emphases here, however.
